Sporadic-E on 4 m & Aurora on 2 m

Interesting day today! Four was open this morning via ES to the UK & Ireland as well as EA & EA6. It closed at 12z and never opened again, MUF down. Thus nothing to expect on 2 m either, right? Well, I almost missed the Aurora in the evening which caught me by surprise. 😉 Managed the following QSOs before it was all over again:
